A night with SOULID!
Are you excited but still have some questions? We'll try to answer them here!
What does an evening with SOULID! look like? What can we expect? How about sound and light? Can we request songs?
SOULID! is a band that focuses on providing an evening-filling program. This means that we provide an evening-filling program of 3 sets of 45 minutes.
The band
We are professional musicians with a great love for Soul.
- Roos van Breukelen - Vocals

The evening
With three sets of music of 45 minutes we build up every party to an unforgettable evening!
Between the sets the party doesn't stop. We play a standard music list, which can also be provided by you, a Spotify list for example. It is also possible to use microphones for speeches.
If you want music during dinner, reception or during the arrival of guests, we can play an easy listening set. That is largely instrumental, played by part of the band. We play light jazz and pop. There is an additional cost to this set.
This is what an evening often looks like, but of course we can adapt to your schedule.

The music, setlist and song requests
We make a setlist that fits perfectly with the evening. In addition, we feel on the evening itself what
fits best with the atmosphere and the energy at the party.
Most of our repertoire is on the website!
We have an extensive repertoire but it may be that you really want to hear a special song. That is possible, let us know what you like and we will check if we are able to play it!

Technical - Sound, Light and Stage
We work together with a sound company that brings a sound system fitting to the location
and number of guests. They also bring 'static' light to make the stage look good.
If you already have sound engineers (for festivals or events for example), we can also work with them. Our technical rider can be found on our website (contact page)
We need a space of at least 4 deep by 5 wide meters. If there is no stage available at the location, we can also play without a stage.
Als er een geluidslimiet op de locatie is, bespreken we vooraf wat de mogelijkheden zijn. Ons geluidsniveau ligt ongeveer op 96dBa. If there is a sound limit at the location, we discuss the possibilities in advance. Our sound level is around 96~100dBa.

Schedule
The sound engineers arrive three to four hours before the show. The band arrives an hour later to set up.
We do a soundcheck an hour before the start of the program.
In total we are on location for a maximum of 8 hours.
If that is not enough (because we have to set up in the afternoon for example)
we charge 'waiting money' (25 euros / hour / band member) for that.
If we are present before seven o'clock in the evening, we ask you to provide a (simple) crew meal. If that is not possible, we will discuss that in advance.

Financial
We are a foundation (Stichting SOULID!, KVK 61167487) and send you an invoice after the event.
So you don't have to do difficult with artist statements and the like.
We make a contract with each other in advance stating what we expect from each other so that there are no misunderstandings, to make sure that it will be a great party!
